It rains in Michigan, leaving exactly three days of sunshine for all of your outdoor activities.

My wife claims we have sex four times a week, but I know for sure it's only twice a month. But to be really honest, it's only once a year. c.i.

Ok, you asked me to have a look and the only answer I have is that the riddle became corrupt somehow.
The answer is "e" but the riddle is phrased incorrectly.
The correct way to ask this riddle is:
What happens four times in every week, twice in every day but only once in a year?
BTW, when you see riddles that are sooo contradictory with basic logic look for word-based answers.
When Fridays come before Tuesdays you are obviously dealing with a criteria that is not the obvious one.
So with this type of riddle look for language twists.
For me it went like this:
I looked for letters and found none. I then looked for things like voiced consanants etc.
Then I looked for a corrupted riddle.

Well, we haven't met formally. I'm posted on your "females are evil" forum. I've been reading and catching up on conversations. I figured if I brought it to your attention like we were old friends, then soon we will be.
I haven't seen you on other riddle boards, but i've got a couple of riddles I can't answer if you're game.
